HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted June 18, 2016 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 Hello all, So here's my question...... If I test out the DL -coils tomorrow morning by placing them on my head and wearing them WITHOUT turning on the processors, will that tell me if the sensation is magnet related? Does this thinking make sense? Any help or suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearPeers Heroes Kara of Canada Posted June 19, 2016 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 Hey Sandy says she has that sensation at the end of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted June 19, 2016 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 For me, it's only with the DL-coil not the D-coil. It is either the magnet strength or more likely the perceived increase in volume. Time will tell. Sandy, maybe you would experience it less at night if you decreased your volume in the evening a bit. It may be a sign of overstimulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Cara Mia Posted June 22, 2016 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 Mary Beth, have you found out what is to blame for your sensation - the magnet or increase in volume? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted June 22, 2016 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 Hi Cara, I received the weaker magnets yesterday. We are heading out of town tomorrow, so I will test them out once we return and report back. I love the perceived crispness of speech with the DL-coil so I am motivated to figure this out. Smile.

HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted August 4, 2016 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted August 4, 2016 It ended up that something was wrong with the DL-coils and Med-El switched them out at the request of my audiologist. The new DL-coils work fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
